Chapter Twenty-Seven: White Clouds and Flowing Water
The Twin Holy Gates and others fell from the city wall, followed by the guards of Zhuge Villa led by Duan Chen. The city gate was also opened from the inside, and a hundred and ten people rushed in from the outside, led by a woman in red. The small field under the city walls was instantly filled with people.
Seeing this, Xiao Xinyi immediately took Lan Yun in his arms to diagnose her pulse, fortunately, there was no major problem for the time being, but she needed to go back to the master to slowly recuperate before she could wake up.
Leng Moyan rushed to Zhong Yuan with an arrow step, and asked with a slight trembling, "Where is Begonia?"
Xiao Xinyi raised his head and said to Leng Moyan, "I'm here."
Leng Moyan looked at the beautiful young woman about thirty years old in front of her suspiciously, and her eyes were confused. Xiao Xinyi smiled and said, "I'm transfigured."
Leng Moyan suddenly realized, took her hand and looked her up and down, and asked anxiously, "You're not injured, are you?"
Xiao Xinyi shook his head and said, "No."
Leng Moyan breathed a sigh of relief, and her face, which had been tense, eased slightly. Looking at Lan Yun, who was still unconscious, he asked, "How is Lan Yun's injury?"
"It's no big deal, I'll wake up soon, Ling Mo." Xiao Xinyi asked.
"In Zhuge Villa, someone is taking care of it." Leng Moyan replied.
Hu Guyue heard their conversation, first walked up to Zhong Yuan, saluted decently, called Senior Brother, and after seeing Zhong Yuan nodding at him, he called Xiao Xinyi sweetly: "Senior Sister."
Although the senior brother Zhong Yuan's internal strength in medical skills is the highest in the Holy Gate of Medicine, which has been admired by all the junior brothers and sisters for a long time, because of his cold and indifferent temperament, most of the disciples under him dare not get too close to him.
Xiao Xinyi saw a faint smile on his face: "Gu Yue, you are here too, why did you come so fast."
Hu Guyue saluted Xiao Xinyi and said: "Senior sister, two days after you came down the mountain, the master ordered a team of disciples to come down the mountain to pick up the senior brother, we met Leng Moyan outside the city, originally I didn't let me come, I volunteered to come, so that I could see you as soon as possible." Hu Guyue looked at Xiao Xinyi with a well-behaved expression.
Before Xiao Xinyi could answer, Leng Moyan next to him sneered: "I think you can't hold back and want to find a reason to go down the mountain to play."
"What's the matter, Leng Moyan, don't talk nonsense, I really miss my senior sister." After speaking, he glanced at Zhong Yuan, and saw that he didn't look here, so he had the audacity to pull Xiao Xinyi's sleeve and shake it twice.
Xiao Xinyi looked at his movements and laughed for a while, such a big person still loves to be coquettish like a child. "Of course I know you really miss me."
Hu Guyue raised her chin happily when she heard Xiao Xinyi finish speaking.
Leng Moyan turned around and gave him a roll of his eyes.
Xiao Xinyi saw Duan Chen talking to Zhuge Qinghong not far away, and Zhuge Qinghong was cold.
She handed over the Lan Yun in her arms to Leng Moyan and Hu Guyue to take care of, pulled Zhong Yuan and the two walked towards the soft sedan chair without the slightest movement on the side, the sedan chair man next to the soft sedan car disappeared without knowing when, and walked to Zhong Yuan looked at the hanging sedan curtain and said: "Thank you for your rescue today, the disciples of the Double Holy Gate are grateful, and have the courage to ask Your Excellency's name, so that Zhong can thank him in person."
After waiting for a while, there was no movement in the sedan car, Zhong Yuan tried his best to probe it, and there was no breath in the sedan car.
Zhong Yuan shook his head at Xiao Xinyi next to him and said, "The person is gone." Seeing Xiao Xinyi nodded and asked, "In your opinion, who is in the sedan chair?"
Xiao Xinyi replied: "Although the person in the sedan car deliberately changed his voice, I think it should be the third brother, he has been staying in an inn with me for the past two days, and he secretly came to me at night and told me that he would help me rescue you together." After a pause, he said: "He is leaving quietly now, because he doesn't want to expose his identity in front of so many people."
Zhong Yuan was silent for a long time and said: "What is his identity besides the richest man in the world, my third brother is really not simple."
The two turned around and saw Zhuge Qinghong walking towards this side, and stopped talking at the moment, Zhuge Qinghong saw Zhong Yuan, who was standing next to Xiao Xinyi in front of the soft sedan chair, and lowered his eyes slightly and said: "Zhong Daxia, I haven't seen you for several years since the last parting, but I didn't expect to be lucky enough to fight side by side with you again today."
Zhong Yuan arched his hand and said: "Today, we were able to get out of it with the help of my son, and I am not grateful for my great kindness, and this kind of kindness will be repaid in the future."
Zhuge Qinghong smiled: "I didn't save Zhong Daxia to ask for favors, everyone is a person in the martial arts, we should support each other, and help each other, if I am in trouble in the future, I believe Zhong Daxia will not ignore it."
"That's nature." Zhong Yuanbao laughed.
"It's over, and it's time for me to go back to my father." Then he looked at Xiao Xinyi and said, "I will send someone to send something that Miss Jiang put in Surabaya City."
"Ling Mo is still in Dongyue Mountain, besides, I will personally go to Guishan Villa to thank you, but my little apprentice is still in a coma, it is not suitable to bumpy, and I will not be able to leave until I find the carriage tomorrow." Zhong Yuan said to Zhuge Qinghong when he heard this.
Zhuge Qinghong's face moved slightly: "There is a carriage in the inn that we took when we came, today I can let Miss Jiang take you to the inn to rest, and it is not too late to recuperate for a few days before going on the road."
Zhong Yuan nodded when he heard this: "That's fine."
Zhuge Qinghong took a deep look at Xiao Xinyi and said to the two: "In this way, don't pass here, there will be a period later."
"There will be a date later." Both returned the gift at the same time.
"When have you fought alongside him?" Xiao Xinyi looked at Zhuge Qinghong's distant back and asked Zhong Yuan on the side.
"Do you remember what I told you about Shafeng Village before?" Zhong Yuan asked.
"Is it the village that does all the evil for the disaster in Huzhou, I haven't heard you mention it for a long time." Xiao Xinyi replied.
"A few years ago, I was picked by the two of us." Zhong Yuan said lightly.
"Oh." Xiao Xinyi was speechless. The two teamed up to pick a stockade, why had they never heard him say it before. Xiao Xinyi thought about it, Zhong Yuan had mentioned Zhuge Qinghong to her before, but she only remembered that he praised Zhuge Qinghong, and she didn't remember how he said how they met together.
The sound of horses' hooves was loud in the silent night, kicking up the dust on the official roads outside the city. The people of the Twin Holy Gates watched the group that gradually disappeared into the night before they realized that there was still a group of people in the city who did not follow.
The leader is a woman in red, carrying a large ring knife. Xiao Xinyi looked at Zhong Yuan and was a little confused, originally thought that this team of people was also from Zhuge Villa, but now he remembered that this team of people had been standing quietly beside him all along, and had not communicated with the people of Zhuge Villa.
Because the leader of the other party was a woman, Xiao Xinyi stepped forward to talk to her: "I don't know which sect disciple this girl is."
The woman in red replied a little at a loss: "I came to protect Jiang Haitang Jiang girl on my father's order."
"I am Jiang Haitang, who is your father?" Xiao Xinyi asked suspiciously.
"My father's surname is Qin, and I should be about to arrive at the Shuangsheng Gate at this moment, and my father said that he will understand when you see him." The woman in red replied.
Xiao Xinyi thought hard. "The surname is Qin, and there is only one person with the surname Qin that she knows in her memory." Xiao Xinyi's eyes widened suddenly, but she steadied herself and thought about how likely this was.
One of the most common things Master taught her was, "Never jump to conclusions before you have thoroughly investigated the truth." ”
Xiao Xinyi thought about it for a long time and didn't dare to draw conclusions, thinking that the truth would naturally be revealed after he arrived at the Double Holy Gate, and it was really not appropriate to dwell on it at this moment. looked at this woman in red, who was only fourteen or fifteen years old, her gorgeous little face was faintly similar to the person in her memory, and Xiao Xinyi's heart skipped a beat.
"What's your name?" Xiao Xinyi looked at her timid appearance and asked softly.
"Qin Youyou, Miss Jiang can call me Youyou." The woman in red has a pair of eyes that seem to be full of starlight.
"This name is so good, you live in Jiangcheng with me today, and we will go on the road together tomorrow."
"Okay." When Qin Youyou heard her say this, a smile as bright as a summer flower bloomed on his face. looked at Hu Guyue, who was standing next to him, with a slight ripple in his heart.
The group followed Xiao Xinyi to stay at the Fulai Inn, but fortunately, there were no guests in the inn, so many people squeezed down and found a room to sleep.
After everyone was settled, Xiao Xinyi knocked on Zhong Yuan's door opposite, Zhong Yuan's room was occupied by Hu Guyue and three other disciples, the four of them had already laid the ground, Zhong Yuan heard the sound and walked out of the door and quickly closed the door.
"Senior brother, you know who is besieging you." The two of them stood on the roof of the inn, and the moonlight sprinkled on the two people in fluttering clothes, like immortals under the moon.
"I don't know, I arrived in Jiangcheng for a few days and didn't find the old man that the master said, when I was about to leave, I was ambushed by a group of people in the dark, Lan Yun was not good at learning and was injured by a hidden weapon, Ling Mo was sent out of the city by me with internal force, the original intention was to let her hide outside the city and fly pigeons to pass the book to the master, I didn't want to escape, I just wanted to find out who ambushed us, I didn't want her to run to Zhuge Villa, and you were involved." Zhong Yuan looked at Xiao Xinyi carefully for a long time: "I don't know where the master is who is disguised for you, but I can't see the slightest flaw."
"A little girl in Surabaya City." Xiao Xinyi said.
Zhong Yuan was not too surprised when he heard this: "There are many hidden masters in the rivers and lakes, and it is not uncommon for a little girl to have such attainments."
"She is Zhuge Qinghong's apprentice." Xiao Xinyi replied.
"Then Zhuge Qinghong's disguise technique is still above her." Zhong Yuan seemed to be a little interested.
"I guess so."
Xiao Xinyi had never seen Zhong Yuan say so many words at one time, let alone seen him so interested in one thing, tonight was really a bit abnormal, but there was a more important thing at the moment: "I just went to ask the shopkeeper, the third brother has already left."
"The third brother is really getting more and more difficult to figure out." Zhong Yuan sighed after speaking, and then stopped talking.
The two people with their own hearts stood quietly under the moonlight, the wind blew from afar, rolling up the clothes of the two like flowing clouds, the corners of their clothes were like colorful butterflies in the flowers in the spring, and even the warm and cold night seemed to be warmed by this trace of spring.
